The first thing I saw on the internet today was this! Completely put me off my breakfast
Werent these discussed before. I remember the nobbly bits.
Anyway, those, the tongue, the laces to the side, one on its own may have worked but all together? just nah.
I think we saw the samples, these are production.
Needs more Vallely. Although he’s busy with the newest shit shoe company for now.

I was going to say that these remind me of the Pony NFL trainers that were popular (‘here’) in the 80’s… but, after a search to find an example that might be unfair to the Pony’s.
Each to their own and all that - they’re not for me, but someone will like / buy them. Probably.
Shame, Asics make good trainers, but those skate shoes are ugly. All they had to do was take the Asics Japan model and beef it up in a few key areas…

Those and the Gel Vikkas are pretty much skate shoes already. Just stick a better, Lunalon style, insole in them. Done.
See Matt Town in Spirit Quest.
And iirc Connor Kammerer used to skate Asics quite a bit.

But more shoes = better!
I’m pretty sure you don’t want to go Googling that.

It’s a real shame cos Asics have one of the best side of shoe logos. That massive toe protector is like from 1992

Not into these newer designs but I’ve always found Asics to be among the best quality running or sports shoes so I bet they’ll last and be some of the most comfortable as well.
Carumba has 160k followers and they average 410 likes-per-post. Guanteed they bought most of those followers.

That will mostly hometown hero type skaters hoping to DM them to ask for sponsorship after seeing how sub par their riders are so they think they have a chance.
